Episode 137: Zoom Lenses with Chris Niccolls

Jeff Carlson & Kirk McElhearn — Fri, 17 Mar 2023 00:00:00 -0700

Chris Niccolls joins us this episode to talk about zoom lenses! Chris gets to shoot using most new cameras and lenses for DPReview TV, so we wanted to tap into his extensive hands-on experience with zooms. Do they require too many compromises? Why are some so expensive? And can we put to rest the idea that real photographers only shoot with prime lenses?
